THE MOVEMENT OF AUTOMATION

MOVEMENT IS A QUALITATIVE LEAP Lika Electronic develops successfully innovative andeffective solutions to automation since 1982. In the new and enlarged headquarter in Carrè (VI) works a staff of about 50 people made up of technicians, engi-neers and employees to design and manufactureabsolute and incremental encoders for the measure- ment of linear and angular movement. MOVEMENT IS INNOVATION Innovation and research are our pride. It’s our custom to cooperate with the most prestigious Italian Universities, like those of Padua, Pavia and Trieste and with the most accredited Institutes for research, with which we workout plans and establish permanent links. Our whole production of Lika is certified by a SIT centre andproduct samples are periodically tested by qualified centres.We apply the following standard procedure on every com- ponent: • quality control of parts delivered by our suppliers • conformity inspection and control during the production process• control of the automatic assembly line• final inspection MOVEMENT IS GOING FAR After many applications in the military field, in the presen- ce of vacuum and radiation, we are actively part of an international project in thespace sector and we haveestablished a profitable col- laboration with the CISAS (Interdepartmental Centre of Space Studies and Activities) at the Universityof Padua.Lika is actually one of thefew companies in the world able to produce ESA certi- fied encoders for the space.An incremental encoder will be employed in the mecha-nism of the WAC and NAC telescopes forming the OSIRIS payload in the ROSETTA-ESA mis- sion. Our encoders are more accurateand lighter, theyabsorb less power and are able to work at wide ranges of temperature. The most interestingapplications in thespace sector are: • the angle measure in laying systems (telescopes), com- munication links among satellites • the introduction of integrated measurement systems in trim sensors (sun, horizon)• the angle measurement of various mechanisms like fil-ter cases, photographic shutters etc. • the angle measurement within the action of robots MOVEMENT IS THE MECHANISM Lika Electronic is the Italian leader in the field of: • production of rotative and linear position encoders • production of axis controls and positioning systems• analogue and digital electronic design• mechanical design of parts and systems MOVEMENT IS EXECUTION RAPIDITY Our target is to meet the customers’ requirements in the shortest time. Our technical staff is able to carry outrapidly all procedures, from the recognition of thecustomers’ requirements to the final inspection. MOVEMENT IS A PLAY OF CONTINUOUS MOVING We have chosen to focus the attention on products pur- posely studied for the customer, which place perfor-mance and multi-functonality before serialization andvolume. Lika’s commitment is to accept but also to issue the most exciting challenges to its customers, offering the following array of services: • systems analysis and feasibility studies • systems design and plan development with thesupplying of technical, mechanical and softwaredocumentation in accordance with a regular or an arranged standard • training courses for the use and maintenance of the produced systems/equipment • supplying of spare parts•assistance for qualifications and type-approval ofequipment and components
